Ir is being claimed by some papers
that the annual encaInpment of the mi
lita is not worth the cost, and that the
money would be better spent if given
the companies for armory rent and bet
ter equipments. We think not. Could
the companies have better guns and
some ammunition for target practice
they could become more proficient. but
enough is already paid them for armory
rent. Very few companies need more
for their expenses than is already al
lowed them. But rs long as the militia
is TO be maintained there must be an
annual encampment, We venture the
assertion if the legislature does away
with the next encampment not one-half
of the companies Will re-enlist. 1t is
not enough for them TO drill! rs COM
pany--there is no incentive to become
proficient. There may be few com
pauies which have local strife among
the members for them to become well
drilled. but it is not general. The
competitor must be another cOmpany.
And this is not all Without the regl-
mental and brigade drlll the militia
will be almost worthless. Each com
panv made more advancement last fall
at Aberdeen than they would in five
wears drilling as company. Let the
Legislature make liberal appropriations
| for the support of the companies and
for an annual encampment, and Dako-

WARM times are being had in the
lower branch OF the legislature. Sew
eral members who helped elect Crosse as
speaker became dissatisfied with the re-
muneration they received, and made a
combination with North Dakota to take
the power Of appointing committees
away from the speaker and give it to
the House. AS some of their forces
were absent on leave they did not dare
attempt this move at their Mondays
session. SO insisted on call Of the
house to kill time. AS Ruggles was
absent without leave they spent the day
and part of the night waiting for him
to be found and for the train to arrive
with the other members Of their combi-
nation. Before they were able to pass
the new measure, however, the dis
satisfied members from the South were
brought back OH the promise OF their
desired chairmanships, and all was
again smooth for South Dakota.

When Prominent People Are Sick.


1t is curious TO observe how prevalent Is
the desire To conceal the actual condition of
prominent people when they are sick. The
tendency is not peculiar to America. II
seems To Le universal, and it has every where
the same Iesult-namely: that when the
patient is Gead the doctors are abused, the
relatives and friends Of the deceased are
pronounced to be either fools or knaves, and
the settlement Of the post.mortem affairs Ct
the dead person very much embarrassed
In the case of William II. Naaderbilt, for
instance, it was known for nearly three
years that brain disease was making
alarming progress with him, but none OF
the members of his family or his business
associates would acknowledge ths fact to
each other, and every body surrounding him
was working es hard as possible to keep the
facts out OF the newspapers Yet 1t was
known that Vanderbilt was sometimes sit.
ting for hours at his library table, with his
mouth open and watering, his jaw hanging
Oh one side, and his eyes staring into
vacancy, without anybody or anything be-
ing able to rouse him from his semi para
lytic condition, unless 1t were Cbauncey NJ.
